Migrate your TomatoCart Store into a Sub-Domain Safely

Some store owner may want to migrate their store into a sub-domain. In this article, I will teach you how to migrate your store safely.

Let’s assume your store’s current domain is www.example.com and the linked directory on your web server is /var/www/www.example.com/public_html. Now, you wish to put your store under sub.example.com which linking to /var/www/www.example.com/public_html/store.

Step 1. Backup all of the files and folds under /var/www/www.example.com/public_html.

Step 2. Move all of the files and folds under /var/www/www.example.com/public_html to /var/www/www.example.com/public_html/store.

As you can see, it is necessary to modify the new domain for the server and cookie domain. Then, you must modify the new path for the TomatoCart system in order to use the sub-domain. You could get the correct path linked to your sub-domain in your web host cpanel.
